The panel noted recruitment to the full-time MBA and the MSc programmes was very strong in 2020, despite the pandemic.

The panel also commended the compulsory Career Accelerator Programme on the full-time MBA programmes. This initiative provides professional development services and events, which were seen to benefit student experience.

The panel also commended the School’s leadership team and dedicated programme teams.
